Abstract
In this paper, the physical layer design of IMT-2000 system being developed by SK Telecom is introuduced. The outband signaling scheme and the two-pilot scheme are adopted for multimedia service and inter-cell asynchronous mode respectively. In addition, the synchronous transmission scheme is proposed to reduce the interference in the reverse link. The algorithm and simulation results of 'two-pilot scheme' for inter-cell asynchronous mode and 'reverse synchronous control' for synchronous transmission are presented.
